[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ultra Magnus: [QB] Alright, we all know that the [i]USS Prometheus[/i] was seen on screen with the registry NX-59650. We also know that on the Dedication Plaque it says NC-74913. Now, apparently this plaque # was partially visible in "MIAB". So therefore, we have an interesting situation. Not much unlike the whole [i]Brittain/Brattain[/i] or the [i]Jenol*n[/i] issues. So what I'm getting to is this: We know that the model makers made a mistake with the [i]Brittain[/i] model and was spelt with an 'I'. We know this to be wrong, and many of us accept [i]Brattain[/i] as the correct spelling, as that's what they meant to put. Another example is the Type-6 Shuttlecraft [i]Feynman[/i]. The model/exterior was labelled [i]Feyman[/i]. Now we know they meant [i]Feynman[/i], so that's what we use. Now with regards to the [i]Prometheus[/i], couldn't we say that the registry actually [b]is[/b] NX-74913? It fits better with everything about the ship, and is 100% more suitable that NX-59650. Now, if that's the case, we must reconsider the [i]Equinox[/i]. Janeway said "[i]Nova[/i]", that's true. But maybe it's like the [i]Constitution/Constellation[/i] thing in that one Episode of TNG. [The name escapes me right now] It could be [i]Noble[/i], it sure is close enough sounding to [i]Nova[/i] to create [b]some[/b] confusion. [b][Note: The [i]Equinox[/i] class name is less important to me than the [i]Prometheus[/i] registry. I just thought I'd throw it out.][/b] Now, in the instances where there've been these type of conflicts in the past, we've studied them and taken the best laid path. We've set precedences, and it seems kind of akward that we don't use them here. [/QB][/QUOTE]
